Your uisr agent string is "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.15) Gecko/20110303 AskTbMPC2/3.11.0.15286 Firefox/3.6.15", the AskTbMPC2 part shows that you have the Ask toolbar installed. Some third-party programs will add the Ask toolbar.

Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.
